We read with interest the recent article by Yu et al., "Interpretable machine learning model predicts 1-year inguinal hernia risk after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy" (DOI: 10.1007/s11701-025-02723-5) , which represents an important step in ap...
Inguinal hernia represents a clinically significant yet underreported complication of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for localized prostate cancer, with a notably high incidence within the first postoperative year. Despite its adverse im...
BACKGROUND: Chronic postoperative inguinal pain (CPIP) is a major complication of inguinal hernia repair and significantly affects patients' quality of life. Despite the widespread use of transabdominal preperitoneal repair (TAPP), CPIP still occurs....

PURPOSE: In laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgery, proper recognition of loose connective tissue, nerves, vas deferens, and microvessels is important to prevent postoperative complications, such as recurrence, pain, sexual dysfunction, and bleeding. E...
BACKGROUND: NLPs such as ChatGPT are novel sources of online healthcare information that are readily accessible and integrated into internet search tools. The accuracy of NLP-generated responses to health information questions is unknown.
Hernia : the journal of hernias and abdominal wall surgery
Sep 17, 2024
PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop, validate, and evaluate machine learning (ML) algorithms for predicting Surgical site infections (SSI) and surgical site occurrences (SSO) after elective open inguinal hernia surgery.
This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and perioperative outcomes of cholecystectomy and hernia repair performed with the Versius Robotic System by a surgeon with no prior robotic surgery experience. A retrospective analysis was conduc...
To investigate the incidence and risk factors of inguinal hernia (IH) after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) using a multicentric database. The present study used a multicentric database (the MSUG94) containing data on 3,195 Japanese patie...
